Postnatal rehabilitation is an important step in recovery after birth, pregnancy being one of the first causes of pelvic floor weakening. But the more you age and the more your muscles lose their tonus, including pelvic floor muscles. The arrival of menopause later in life brings hormonal and physical imbalance, which can worsen a pelvic floor already weak and lead to women’s health issues such as urinary incontinence, prolapse or sexual problems.
This is why pelvic floor and urinary rehabilitation will be useful not only after having a child, but also at all stage of a woman’s life.
The 9 months of pregnancy put women’s body through so many changes, whether it is physical or hormonal, which often lead to some kind of pain or discomfort that can be prevented or treated. As if it wasn’t enough, they also need to prepare themselves for delivery and rehabilitation after birth.
So how women should look after their body during pregnancy and think ahead about postnatal recovery?

Physically one of the most challenging moments in life, childbirth happens to be ‘traumatic’ for 1 every 3 women. Whether delivery was difficult (even the slightest) and/or c-section was necessary, it is common to end up with what we call birth traumas. Mothers and babies can experience physical and psychological consequences from childbirth, from big or small injuries to postnatal Baby Blues or even depression.
This is why it is important to question yourself on whether your delivery has been traumatic and get help from osteopathy to relieve from physical and emotional traumas.
Childbirth is undeniably one of the most overwhelming moments in a woman’s life and even if the delivery goes as well as you could possibly imagine, it is common to suffer from different consequences, physical or psychological.
In the year following delivery, 1 woman out of 10 will experience what we call PND (postnatal depression) or Baby Blues. As a psychological effect of childbirth, the signs of postnatal depression can be subtle and not as easy to recognise as we imagine.
